Depends if the 2000+ are Palomino or Thoroughbred. In the former case, the 2000+ has a higher voltage (1.75V instead of 1.6-1.65V) and higher max current, resulting in a higher max power consumption (+15% or so). I don't have no figures for the average consumption, but I'd expect it to compare similarly. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
